"neurobiologists have identified a dedicated pathway for processing magnetic information that originates in the #InnerEar. This supports an inductive mechanism first proposed over 100 years ago, a concept that science forgot... Genetic analysis of inner ear tissue revealed cells with highly sensitive electric sensors, the same ones used by #sharks to detect their prey"

i finally got these tiny little guys to eat from my hand! 🥰💙

i don't know the species of #bird (anyone? #birds #birdsofmastodon #birdsofFediverse ?)

i have a vid of one sneaking in as some #pigeons eat. or, they come over when the #doves come to me for food at the pool

once one almost ate from my hand but a dove pecked it & ran it off. like they do to their own in the #video

it's too big for #Mastodon, so i put it w/ my other #pigeon vid on substack

So what you're saying is 'Pigeons are smarter than what we call AI these days', yeah?
